Default fxdf vs fxdc or fxdb

I was all set to buy a dyna custom this weekend, then I sat on a FatBob&nbsp\\; with a sundowner seat. Of course the seat helps, but now Im thinking...too many choices! Crap!&nbsp\\;Has anyone out there had or ridden both? I know I will enjoy either. Thanks!

any bike in the dyna line is a good bike , the street bob and the wide glide are nice also.you just have to find the one that fits you . for me the fat bob flips my flipper but I wouldnt cry if I had a dyna custom or street bob.

all good bikes... if you going to ride two up then a fat bob or a custom is what you want, unless you want to buy a pillion or a new seat, passenger pegs and mounts right up front for the street bob.&nbsp\\;

Fat Bob........I love the looks of my Fat Bob!! Plus since I changed the exhaust and air breather, it runs really good!

I went to the dealer today to get a replacement fork pinch bolt and he finally had an 08 fat bob on the floor in that metallic black. $16k for it. if I was buying a bike today I'd buy the fat bob.
